How do satellites make predictions?
That's not the way it works. Satellites photograph such atmospheric phenomena as cloud movement. Weather forecasters watch as the clouds move, generally from west to east although hurricane clouds move across the Atlantic from eas to west. As they see the weather approaching an area, they can PREDICT how the weather will be based on how fast it's moving. Just like you can see a car coming down the street at a steady rate of speed, you can predict how long it will take for the car to run you down. You get out of the way -- people take cover form bad weather.
Why do weather satellites orbit closer to the earth than other types?
Those satellites be closer to earth than other satellites because then it can find out about earth's weather because if it's close to earth then it get in the way of weather so it can send message about the weather faster than others
What tools do you use to forecast weather?
Google's weather feature. Just search on Google (town/city) Weather e.g. Norwich Weather It will give you the temperature now and a 5 day forecast including weather indications and temperatures.
How does wind help predict weather?
Depends witch way it comes from and how hard it comes
Is using past weather data an accurate way to predict the weather?
Yes. It gives forecasters a "reference" to help them predict based on past similar atmospheric setups and their outcomes. This is called an "analog".
Do quantity of acorns predict winter climate?
No, this is just a myth. There is no way that living organisms like trees can predict the weather a season ahead.
What will the weather be like on 29 October 2011 in Wollongong New South Wales?
There is no way to predict the weather six months ahead of time.
Can meteorologists predict volcanoes?
The fact of whether or not geologists can measure or predict a valcano is silly each valcano is different and it is of nature thus there is not way to predict what it will do and when it will do it.
How does the weather information from satellites get back to earth?
In very much the same way as it gets to your radio, your TV, or your smartphone ... by radio signals.
Climatology method is what?
The climatology method is another way of producing weather forecasts. It takes data over many years and compiles it to predict what type of weather will come.

How do satellites help meteorologists forcast the weather?
A weather satellite is a type of satellite that is primarily used to monitor the weather and climate of the Earth. These meteorological satellites, however, see more than clouds and cloud systems. City lights, fires, effects of pollution, auroras, sand and dust storms, snow cover, ice mapping, boundaries of ocean currents, energy flows, etc., are other types of environmental information collected using weather satellites. This makes them crucial in predicting developing weather patterns and possibly help predict wather all together.
